Download the video before YouTube takes it down. I want to see that site flooded with reuploads if they do.

    It will stay up. Do you know how many YouTube videos there are badmouthing Google? They don't care so long as you're watching them.

    All I know is they took down the ones by LTT and Jeff Geerling, I can only assume it was due to the larger audience those two attracted. Now imagine PewDiePie...

    I don’t care about his content, but I downloaded for historical preservation. If you’re willing to watch can you explain the beef?

    I just use down sub to pull the transcript from his video It's only 60% as annoying.

    He has the normal privacy versus cost worries which are reasonably valid. Then he rambles on, plugs a product that he's shilling that's unrelated to the subject matter, says he's replacing Google search with a local LLM, does some hot takes on alternatives, does some reasonable takes on some alternatives.

    To be honest, this is probably the least helpful de-googling video I've seen, other than the fact that he's a major influencer and is telling everyone they should be doing it.

    I don't think it was supposed to be particularly helpful. It's more of him sharing his passion with his audience. Which isn't going to be interesting if you don't care about him.
